UniFi Switch Lite 16 PoE (USW-Lite-16-PoE): Compact Layer 2 Managed Switch (16× GbE, 8× PoE+, 45W Total Budget)

The Ubiquiti UniFi Switch Lite 16 PoE (USW-Lite-16-PoE) is a fully managed Layer 2 Gigabit switch designed for small and medium businesses, offices, and advanced home networks that require silent operation and essential PoE+ power. Featuring 16 Gigabit RJ45 ports, including 8 PoE+ (802.3af/at) with a total 45W PoE budget, it delivers fast, reliable connectivity with full UniFi Network integration and completely fanless operation.

⚡ 16× Gigabit Ports with 8× PoE+ (45W Total)

Easily connect workstations, printers, NAS devices, and other networked equipment while powering up to 8 UniFi Access Points, Protect cameras, or VoIP phones directly via Ethernet — up to 32W per port (45W combined).
This makes it ideal for compact network expansions without requiring external PoE injectors.

🧠 Comprehensive UniFi Management

Fully managed via the UniFi Network platform (v7.2.94 or later), the USW-Lite-16-PoE supports a wide range of Layer 2 features, including:
